Only five wins away from winning a trophy.

I hope we take it seriously this season. We won't play full strength obviously (until the final)

Answered my own question by Google.

Seems like Champions League and Europa League teams will be seeded, but Conference League won't be so we can still get Chelsea.

Chelsea or Newcastle the teams to avoid, then.

I don't agree with teams being seeded, even if it likely means an easier draw for us. We've already had a bye in the 2nd round so it's not really fair on the small teams like Blose and Newcastle.

You are right it’s not not really fair to blues but luckily they have found a way around that.

Nothing to do with Olsen. It was the full team on the night and Dendoncker in particular.

Barnsley away hopefully as easy to get to for me, but have a feeling it will be Everton away.

Dendonker too i agree that mistake was dreadful but olsen was very crap for the first goal

I was thinking yesterday that Watford away would be dreadful, so it will probably be them.

Dull team, but one that usually beats us.

I fancy Orient away. Revenge for 2014 - actually, 10 years ago this week.

We ain’t come as far as we think if we’re worrying about the likes of Watford.  They’re on a bit of an up I believe so it would be a decent fixture in my book. We’ll probably get Barrow away again. Hope so.
